Since its founding in 1948, the Middle Atlantic Blind Golf Association (MABGA), a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, has been dedicated to offering blind and low vision individuals—men, women, and children—the chance to experience the challenges and rewards of golf.

Currently, MABGA serves over 100 blind and low vision golfers and coaches, alongside 78 junior golfers. Our Junior Golf Program has expanded to North Jersey, and we are excited to announce the completion of the Kritz Links golf course, located at the New York Institute for Special Education in the Bronx. This is the second course MABGA has built, following the success of the first course at the Overbrook School for the Blind in Philadelphia. Visit our Junior Golf Page for the full story.
Our members participate in approximately 35 golf outings annually, including a special event where participants are paired with local PGA professionals, known as the Joe Casey Pro Am Tournament. Additionally, we host an annual fundraising charity tournament to support our efforts.
MABGA operates as a self-sustaining organization, funding its programs through membership dues, donations, and proceeds from our Annual Charity Event.
